It's almost that time...

Are you ready for football? We are now with our opposing team dresses!

My first Halloween design...

I got this little boot design and love it! I put it on one of the dish towels I got from Market ( I have tons of these, by the way). I don't like the colors I chose, but I plan on putting a ribbon on the shoes to spice it up. I can't wait to hang it on the stove!

A few new shirts

First off, I may have to change to title of my blog to "My 'the girls are halfway entertained or it is midnight and Lee is out of town' Hobby". Why do children decide that they are above a great afternoon nap? It is beyond me. Anyway, I digress.

At market I got Harper a cute turquoise jumper, so I put a red polka dot H on it....

To match Harper, Sophie got a pair of pants out of the same turquoise material, so I made Sophie a cute shirt...

I made Harper this cute little shirt. My friend showed me a similar shirt design, so I copied it a little bit:

A working machine is a marvelous thing...

I got my machine part about 2:00 today, and I have accomplished 11 successful items today! woohoo!!!

Here are a few things:

This is the new bibs I got at market. They are so easy to sew!

Here are two bibs and burp cloth sets for a friend who has a busy shower month!

These are shirts for my niece to help her stand out with her uniforms.

This is Sophie's birthday shirt. We are having a "flowery fourth" party for her, and a friend made matching skorts. I am hoping the shirt stays clean through her party so we can rewear this cute outfit!

no naps lately!!!

I haven't had much to blog on this site lately because a) we have been extremely busy enjoying a fun filled summer of swimming, traveling, and chick fil a. b) the girls haven't been regularly napping, hence the hobby I enjoy at naptime is lacking, and c) my machine has had a few repairs lately, and I am ANXIOUSLY awaiting a visit from the UPS man today to get the final piece of my fixed machine.

I got so many cute items at Market in Atlanta last week that are screaming "monogram me!!", so when I do get a visit today, it is ON! I have great little cosmetic bags, bloomers, shirts, market totes, etc that I bought extra. So, if you see anything in the next few posts you like, just let me know!

Christmas in July!

What better way to beat the heat than get the girls ready for a Christmas Party! A friend of mine and I are trading our skills, and I am getting two reversible jumpers out of the deal! She sews, and I applique. One side of these jumpers was to be a Christmas design, and I chose this cute tree. The other side is a monogram. I love this tree, and am SO ready for cooler temps!

New fabric combinations

I went to my favorite little sewing shop Saturday and got a few new fabric combinations. Now I am just SO ready to make something with them.
